The Ringos




The Ringos new family have decided they don't want them anymore. You may recall how Magoo, and Mia, were adopted by a family. It seemed at first that the family was very happy and appreciated them both. Well, a recent phone call indicated, not so fast, Ringos. Apparently the new family wants to give them back! It is a logistical puzzle to figure out how to get them back here. I would also be happy to let one or both of them be adopted to a new "forever home". The current plan is to either give Magoo to a friend in Maryland, or, fly up there to bring him back on the airplane. We'll sell Mia on Craig's list or give her to the shelter. These latter two plans are not minor logistically, since we are in Texas and the budgies are in Maryland. I must admit it is stressful. Others have offered to take the birds temporarily, but, that will only temporize the situation. An adoption has to be a forever home, I can't go through having to find them yet another home in six months time, again.
